/*

This file is the server-side counter part of Code/Configuration.js in the SampleWebsite.

It's base purpose is to provide a strongly-typed way of accessing configuration in the 
web.config or app.config files.  This way no one ever has to use the built in 
'ConfigurationManager' and risk spelling a particular configuration incorrectly.
